Two diehard Red Sox fans were arguing baseball issues over a few beers in their local pub. One asked his friend - "How do you think Ted Williams would do against today's modern pitching? The relievers come in fresh and really throw heat. Since Ted played, they've developed better, stronger pitchers with more types of pitches."
The friend responded -- "Aw, Ted would probably hit about .295 against them."
".295!" the first guy responded. Are you out of your freaking mind. He may be the greatest hitter ever. .295???
Said the friend -- "Well, yeah. You've got to remember. Ted is 83, after all."
